I've always been a believer of never go back but we now need people who are going to make tough decisions for the better of the club. This is a great watch
He had 73 games at Notts County in League 2 and was tactically very good in the National League. It's whether he can do it with a lesser squad of players
I have worked in sport and physios can give advice not to sign a player but a manager often ignores that advice. Maguire should never have been signed on his injury history never mind his medical!
Looks like Andy Cook is now surplus at Bradford and on his way out in January. Would a good short term signing for us given his age but looks to be in demand
I have worked in football, rugby league and ballet and non contact injuries should not be happening in professional sport. In simple terms it is usually due to poor screening and lack of adequate strength and conditioning to cope with the load of the sport. Footballers are notoriously lazy and non compliant when it comes to S&C. We would never see non contact injuries in rugby or ballet
I'm not stunned about the appointment but very disappointed. This was a big opportunity to reset the club and change the style we've had to endure for many seasons. It was also a chance for the board to show they listen to the opinions of fans instead of just paying lip service.
The next week will go some way to see if Jim really wants to change things. If he doesn't clear the decks and gives sentimental contracts then I fear the worst. I can understand some of the football he played so far as he had no real scope to change playing style with the dross he inherited. There have been glimpses of attacking, entertaining football so I've not totally lost hope but I am clinging on with my fingernails
I am mildly optimistic if we can get the next crucial decisions right. It's a great chance for the club to reset on and off the field. Take on board some of the great fan suggestions that have come about recently. On the field have a big clear out and change the ethos of the last 5 seasons of turgid losing football. Try to appoint a Micky Mellon/Darrell Clarke type manager and get fans excited to attend games again.
The BT tv coverage is really good and we get away from the dire stewardship of the EFL.
A brilliant read and highlights the gradual decline. It is now that the vast football knowledge and insight of people like Mark should be sought and egos left aside
The worry I have giving McNulty the job full time would be his loyalty to the players he has played and worked with for years. Most are clearly not good enough and we need a massive clear out and rebuild
